Hi. New to linux. When I try to run something under wine (installation of windows program), I get the following error. My system is running linux-only RH7.3. I've gone into the /config file with pico and tried changing from c:\windows\temp to c:\temp with and without the double \\. This resulted in a single install going presumably okay (I have no idea how to LAUNCH the program I just installed...) but will not allow me to install again, resulting in the old problem. Rinse and repeat, but now without the success. Running under xwine's GUI (which I hoped would fix it) results in the same problem. I can't find this problem in the WineHQ archives. Help greatly appreciated - I just know I'm doing something stupid... -============================ $ wine Could not stat /home/Emiricol/.wine/c:\windows\temp (No such file or directory), ignoring drive E: Invalid path 'c:\windows\temp' for temp directory: does not exist Perhaps you have not properly edited or created your Wine configuration file.

My apologies - the error message was the same with or without an .exe, so I
just grabbed the message. Here is the .wine /config file:
WINE REGISTRY Version 2
;; All keys relative to \\Machine\\Software\\Wine\\Wine\\Config
;;
;; MS-DOS drives configuration
;;
;; Each section has the following format:
;; [Drive X]
;; "Path"="xxx" (Unix path for drive root)
;; "Type"="xxx" (supported types are 'floppy',
'hd', 'cdrom' and
'network')
;; "Label"="xxx" (drive label, at most 11 characters)

hexadecimal number)

'msdos'/'dos'/'fat',
'win95'/'vfat', 'unix')
;; This is the FS Wine is supposed to emulate on a certain

recommended)

Thanks, that solved the problem! Okay, after some trial and error, I got to the point where I corrected this. I encountered some permissions errors, but set chown for the temp and the windows directories (-R) to my user group Emiricol. The violent angry permissions error has stopped, but I now get the following two popup error messages (console messages underneath these two). =======================1) - "Error: Unable to create a directory under C:\Program Files\nbos\fwe1.3\Samples.

I've messed around with chown some more, but nothing much changed. Any idea
what I should try next? It is probably something very simple being
overlooked :(
